This year's CFUnited is going to be great again... they added more tracks and consolidated the frameworks conference into it.

I want to publicly congratulate two of my very talented friends, which I have seen grow the last couple of years and I'm proud to speak with them at CFUnited this year. Luis Majano, author of ColdBox, will be presenting ColdBox 101; and Tom de Manincor, who I have the pleasure to work with at ichameleon/group/, will be presenting on leveraging databases.

I will be speaking at CFUnited Europe: Embrace Factories and ColdFusion Powered Ajax; as well as the traditional conference in D.C: RIA Security and Real time data manipulation with SQL.

Hope to see you all there.

Updated 02/2008: I will no longer be speaking at CFUnited after the date change. Unfortunately, it conflicted with another conference. I will miss you all.

Amazing news for the residents of New York: two of my good friends and phenomenal talented friends are taking over the NYCFUG. Ben Nadel and Clark Valberg are replacing Judith and Michael Dinowitz who after ten years fairly deserve a break.

Congratulations New York. Read more about it at Ben's blog.
